A major conference, "The Ambiguous Legacy of the
Enlightenment," will be held January 25-27 on the
campuses of Claremont McKenna College and Claremont Graduate School. Co-sponsored by the Henry
Salvatori Center for the Study of Freedom in the
Modern World and the Claremont Institute for the
Study of Statesmanship and Political Philosophy, the
conference addresses the roots of the Enlightenment,
and its philosophical, theological, and political
significance.

A keynote dinner will be held on Thursday, January
25, at 6:00 p.m. in the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum,
preceded by a 5:30 p.m. reception. The speaker will be
William A. Rusher. A leading figure in the American
conservative movement for more than 30 years, as a
syndicated columnist, television commentator, and
publisher of National Review, Mr. Rusher recently became a Claremont Institute senior fellow. He speaks on
"The Twilight of the Enlightenment?"
